They acted when two thugs tried to force their way into their home by using the St. Louis couple's 17-year-old daughter as a shield. She had been outside fetching something from her car when the men grabbed her. Inside, the father happened to see what was happening and pulled out his gun. His wife also retrieved a gun. Home invader Terrell Johnson entered first and received the first bullets. He didn't survive. His partner Cortez McClinton - arrested in 2010 on a murder charge, but eventually released because of uncooperative witnesses - managed to escape, if only briefly. His brother took him to a hospital for chest and thigh wounds. The police picked him up there. <http://thisiscommonsense.com/images/HomelandSecurity.png> Mom had also gotten off a shot but did not hit either intruder, leading one blogger to opine that although her heart is in the right place, she needs practice. A reader replied, rightly, that when your own daughter is directly in harm's way, your shooting skill is hardly the only variable. Besides, the goal in brandishing a weapon isn't necessarily to wound bad guys, but better yet to scare them off. There's a deterrent effect in owning guns. I am surprised that advocates of gun control and their compatriots in the national MainStream Media are not all over this story. For here is yet another dramatic proof of the need for effective gun control on which they constantly insist. The gun used to thwart the invaders was very effectively controlled indeed. This is Common Sense. I'm Paul Jacob.
